Most people tell me I'm extremely easy going and funny, but a little
strange (though sometimes they say "artistic" which sounds nicer).
I've been partying alot lately since SF is a party town, but I also
need to chill out with just myself, write, read, etc. I love GG park,
movies, and getting some culture. I'm comfortable with the fact that
I haven't figured it all out yet, and I don't know just where I'm going.
I just try to be as creative as I can and have fun.

For any great friend: You're unpretentious and very open-minded.
You're kind: like you wouldn't think twice about helping a stranger
carry a sofa up a hill. But you don't take any shit. You're
independant in the extreem. You're intelligent in a surprising way
and funny without meaning to be. To each her own, you often say.
Bonus: you like spicy food, you have a warm smile, you're an
animal lover/owner.
